the collective hubris of our indifference to ants
We walk the earth as lords of all
only judeo-christian types of course
We crush the weak and heed no call
history is written by the winners
We think ourselves the smartest race
anthills never knew Oppenheimer
We show no...

Goodnight Moon
Evening tiptoes away on slippered feet
Houses up and down the street are silhouettes
The faint sound of a train whistles through the air
leaving a...

Rifting the Divide
Leagues of water
separate us
and with a thought
she feels my touch.
With a push
of her consciousness
I feel her
curl up
into my back,
sending the shiver...

The Golden Age of Music
Thanks to Rockabilly being wed to R & B,
History changed drastically when Rock became mainstream.
Elvis crooned and moved his hips. Girls began to scream.
Goodness Gracious, Great Balls of Fire – sang out Jerry Lee.

Lone Life Like Dead Wood
Late summer storm fells the defoliated tree
Over the hill slope it rolls on to the stream
No branch survives the rough downslide free
Entering the stream like a dead log it swims.
Lying on the lap of stream...

Belly Rose Ghost Sunlight Disincarnate
Look at me your bittersweet memory tied up
in knots, wheeled to an early grave buried 12 feet
smoked naked to the early morning.
Awake just like your butterfly cracker color shake.
Split jaded kisses....

You Got Me
Inspired by SAW, JR
You got me in rifting feel twists
of bits not yet on my heart’s list.
You got me with your careless ways
that my ways had not come across.
Yes, you laid our mess in pain’s...

Diamonds
And now the trickles ripple rifting
through the hues of the sky—confetti!
The words of my mouth are paintings;
a projected splash all over—frantics!
Whether they drag down God's face
blaze out streamlights—candlelights
pin a billion sunrises into a stiffened day.
How...

Valentine Morning
My drowsy eyes turn to wander
Where window gazing, finds a crescent moon
Rifting the darkness, and against it's light
A magnolia branch is stenciled, black and keen
Three stars are tangled in the topmost bough...
And because deep...

STONE
I spent my youth presenting as stone,
sure that protection from the violent vicissitudes
of the human condition lay in a geologic journey,
the only real threat the unlikely complications of
continental drift
Hence, I hadn’t allowed...

Mountain Meek And Majestic
Massive, monumental, mammoth, mighty, and marvelous
Has my magnificence been devoid of arduousness?
With an unknown collision of plates, as though two hearts
With folding, faulting, and fondling, nature creates my parts.
There's in me, life-like evolution and involution.
Volcanoes...

Demonstrations' Heat
a fourstitch (quatrain), chain-rhymed
in response to global warming and climate change
Environmental agendas of the left
see such solutions left far behind
in the demonstrations of today.
The political climate is shifting.
“Peaceful” protests have left us bereft.
they are scarcely...

An Empty Space
Your convictions spread thin,
morals delayed for friday nights.
And alibi's for a biast mind?
I find no reply,
I find no reply.
I consume in baneful thoughts
my maladys, my ardors,
watched them sold and bought.
You tell,
You...

A Sheltering Light at Ironwood
The sun sets leaping in fierce golden shafts
As days shift shorter with Winter’s warning
We seek emblazoned fires from the chilled drafts
That glaze windows from iced winds each morning
As twilight falls stale dead leaves swirl rifting
Barbed...

Endless Love For Each Other
E-ndless love for each other
D-oes work wonderful things;
U-nder God's guidance they endure
A-ll forms of trials that life brings.

Abandon
Agonized by gloomy sky in rainbow archway you’ll find me
Blown by desert wind, in mirage with despondent you I’ll be
Ambling alone in beach you’ll see me in golden sand’s glow
Network of my pearly lattice the...

Butterfly
One of the Gods great creation I've seen
On the flowers, rifting across the sky.
She glides, she dives
Fluttering along the sky.
She flutters and flies, dances
And glides and again dives.
Her wings are most beautiful,
Graceful, varied...

My Valentine
In the depths of the night I swear I saw your halo
Drifting above, when my thoughts were calm
Ornate but simple like the humble daisy
Lovely and stunning from flower to bulb
Oh how I dreamt...

Meniscus
Meniscus, meniscus, my coffee is cool.
Little meniscus I'm nobody's fool.
Once you seemed warmer; held by my hand.
Then there's this draft from a Tim Horton's fan.
Might be the windows cooling me down.
Maybe the door rifting around.
Regretting...
